Andrew Breitbart, chief sponsor/benefactor of “Liddy Jr.” James O’Keefe III, shows how to argue like a 3 year-old. And I don’t mean that as a joke. I literally mean that’s how a petulant, immature little child argues. Changing the subject, repeating the same unpersuasive line over and over, and otherwise behaving like a petulant twat*.

*twat is funnier and possibly mildly less offensive when pronounced as the British do, so it rhymes with “at”. Not the American way where it rhymes with “rot”. Thank you.

The blogger known locally as the Buffalo Bean enjoys posting Tweets to Twitter. This is good, since he doesn’t enjoy posting to his blog a lot, and much of what he does post is either foolish or ignorant.

I follow a lot of conservatives on Twitter because they’re silly and a lot of them follow me. Admittedly, most of them think I’m silly. So it works pretty well.

The US provides humanitarian and food aid to Palestinians in the West Bank, but not to those in the Hamas-led Gaza Strip. The Obama Administration understands that there is a possibility that Fatah and Hamas may enter into some sort of power-sharing arrangement. The US is looking into whether humanitarian aid could continue to be sent to help the people in the Palestinian territories if such an arrangement happens. Fatah-controlled areas qualify for aid right now.

There’s nothing there about Obama “negotiating” with Hamas, or appeasing terrorists, or anything nefarious there. But that’s what Margolis made it.

Well, it looks like Bush and McCain were right. But, that’s not the whole story. Not only is Obama opening the door to negotiating with Hamas, but he is looking to begin sending them aid, despite the fact they are a designated as a terrorist organization by the U.S. and are restricted by law from receiving federal dollars.

Under normal circumstances, I’d call it disingenuous. But it’s not. It’s willfully false and misleading. It displays either a patent inability to comprehend that which one reads, or a knowing distortion of what was read. Or maybe that’s what he really thought the LA Times wrote. I don’t know. A comment I wrote went into moderation before 2pm today – it’s 9pm now and it still isn’t shown. (UPDATE: nor at 6:17 AM the following day) They must not be used to comments there or something.

The link is to this New York Post article. Gosh, I was so waiting to see what Murdoch’s minions would write to hilariously and bitingly pwn the Obama goon squad that okayed this! Right? I mean, Margolis said it was the White House that fucked this up.

Statement from Louis Caldera, Director White House Military Office, on Air Force One flight over New York

“Last week, I approved a mission over New York. I take responsibility for that decision. While federal authorities took the proper steps to notify state and local authorities in New York and New Jersey, it’s clear that the mission created confusion and disruption. I apologize and take responsibility for any distress that flight caused.”

DON’T THEY KNOW THAT APOLOGIZING IS A SHOW OF WEAKNESS AND HELPS THE TERRORISTS WIN?! /Cheney

But as for the White House being filled with idiots from top to bottom, I’ll take “idiocy” over malicious incompetence any day.

When the Republicans decide that they stand for something, as opposed to against everything, then maybe people will start voting for them again.
